I'm trying to study Adam Ruppe's terminal.d sub-package and I see the

version(demos) unittest

import arsd.terminal;
void main()
{
// . . .

main; // exclude from docs
}
Looks like a good baby step to take, so in the command line I use:
C:\dub\path\to\arsdpackage\arsd-official>dmd terminal.d -unittest
-version=demos

OPTLINK : Warning 134: No Start Address
Shouldn't the version identifier demos and the unittest option activate
the test block and therefore defines main() which then give the "Start
Address"?
That is not a global main, it is inside a unittest block. A unittest
block is actually a function. So the main there is a nested function,
and not the one that D declares as the entry point.
Also, what is the isolated main; command right after the main function?
It's calling the inner function. But I'm sure you would realize that if
you knew that it's not the true main function.
